Malcolm is coming along nicely!
I've got a few notes for you regarding your model...
The bulge under his pectoral muscles seems a little sharp.
The waviness on the bottom of the pants seems to be incorrect. Remember that when it was made in the local sweat shop the length of the fabric would have been the same. It seems to me that you have tried to give it a natural wavy fabric appearance but in doing so you have changed the overall length instead of just scrunching up and pulling in/out. Once you apply some UV you can slap on a checker texture and make sure that there is not stretching. Also, it could really look great if you made the elastic on the short a lot tighter so that it sticks into the skin and creates an indentation.
The ankles need a little work. They are really close, but I think they would benefit from a little more attention and comparison to reference. Don't be afraid to add a little resolution here.
I have attached an image of the head with some of the areas I feel could do with some tweaks.
In order to make your life easier try and spend some time matching the camera better in XSI. Don't forget to look at the meta data on your photo and check the focal length you used, then use this in your 3D scene.
Overall though, he is looking great. There has been some good thought put into the topology and I'm sure this guy is going to look really impressive with the lighting setup you are considering.
cheers
Andrew
